A DAY In SING SING.
Something About It's Regulations
and It's Inmates.
The Storehouse for "Luxuries"-SmuggIed
Iiquor-Punishments-A Tour of
the ShOps-Jaehne, Mcnuade,
DeLeon, Ward, Etc.

On one of those recent mid winter
days of sunshine, when the brightness
Of all outdoors seemed enough to dead
en- by contrast even the most cheerful
of interiors, a small party of artists and
newspaper men from the city paid a
visit Of inspection to the State prison at
Sing Sing. Distant only an hours ride
by rail from New York, occupying one
Of the fairest sites on the Hudson's
shores, and directly in the path of
travel, the great penal establishment,
with its grim walls, high-perchcd sentry
boxes and smoking chimncys, is a con-
spicious landmark to the thousands of
people who pass it daily on boat or
train. Public interest in the place is
augmented at the present time by the
actual or prospective residence there of
. group of distinguished m~alefactors,
whose doings and trials have been, in
almost a National sense. celebrated
eases. Almost everybody would like to
''do'' the prison; but the privilege of
making the complete tour is seldom
granted to strangers, and never to
ladies.
D%ismounting from the p%rison-coach
at the wardcn's Office, which fronts the
steep hill to the eastward, we tried to
imagine ourselves u batch of newly
arrived conyicts. coming to serve out
our terms Of, say. ten or. fifteen years
each. But this was prepostcrous, in
the face Of the courteous greeting
which we Immediately received from
the governor of the domain. Warden
Brush is Il portly gentleman, who looks
very much like Hon. James &. Blaine,
though less frosty rs to hair and beard.
He is from Ponghkeepsic. Ten years
experience of convicts within theprison
and tircsomc visitors from without has
neither hardened his heart nor rough
cned his manner
W. had scarcely entered the door,
when we saw two or three boyisll-look-
ing convicts. evidently crrand-runncrs,
clad in the rough uniform of hodden-
gray, with %narrowi.h though pro-
nounced black stripes. Passing into
the prison office proper, w observed
that the register indicated a convict
population Of /. jS8. The vast majority Of
these are young men, and Warden
Brush afterward informed us that the
average age is about twcnty-scven
years. Noninally, all must be over
nineteen years Of age; but boys of six
teen and seventeen are occasionally
passed off Us older by their parents, so
that they may get u year or two at
Sing Sing in preference to five years ut
the House Of Refuge.
Near this office is the room where
the prisoners are permitted to receive
the visits 81 their families and friends,
once in two months. THIS is the prison

Warden Brush having personally
taken us in hand again, we called at
mo. s." the apothecary's shop, and
visited the hospital. There were six
teen patients here. and none Of them
'shamming,' for they would prefer to
be at work. The warden called them
all by name. and had a kind word for
each. We had observed in one Of the
lower corridors, a posted notice in he
handwriting, forbidding any keeper OF
other person to call n prisoner by 81
offensive name, OF address him in
insulting language. We found the
well-cquipped library in charge Of
no less Il parsonage than Ros
Raymond, the brilliant ex-journalist
novelist, swindler and artist in genera
rascality. He is apparently under forty
years of age, and has the face Of 40
actor, with the corporation of an alder.
nal In u little carpenter shop, Bud.
densick. the builder, was discovered,
at work upon u wooden table to be used
in the tailoring department. His is a
queer. hypocritical-looking face, indi-
eating a british intellect, though the
eyes are small and shrewd. Even now
he is trying to build tumble-down tene-
ments by proxy; and probably no term
of Imprisonment would effect the least
change in his character or purpose.
Afterward we went to the large shop
where old clothes and shoes are patched
up and new uniforms cut and made.
Here. too, provision is made for fur
nishing each prisoner set free in win.
ter time with II good, warm o%vercoat.
to which he may add a velvet collar
at his Owl expense if he likes.
A curious rule also prevails by
which an outgoer may select articles of
clothing from the stock contiscated
from newly arrived prisoners; so that
n need not be startled to see a M
walking Broadway, p%crchance, in
Ferdinand Ward unmentionablcs and
the spring %overcoat Of Il Doodle alder
man.
When, finally, we brought up where
we had started, in the cheerful apart-
ments Of the warden and his family, the
canary-birds were singing in their
cages by the windows, where the af.
tcrnoon sunshine sifted in through the
leat1css vines. These little life-prison.
ers were coetented and cheerful
enough. for they We're FUSED tn IT," and
thought of no other fate. And SO 1t
seemed to be with many Of the human
prisoners, who. with cares dormant
and conscience stilled, moved tran
along the worn groove of this
pathetic death-in -life.-H r.,

DEHORNlNG CATTLE.
How to Get Rid Of Horns without Injar.
ing the Animals Operated On.


Horns, naturally intended as il de.
Tense against p%redaceous animals, arc
useless under domestication, and are
turned by the cattle against each other,
by the strong to t%yrannize over the
weak; the owners. too, often fall vic.
Tins to the natural propensity Of the
cattle to %instinctively use their weapons
bf offcnse. Horns are an outgrowth
from the skull, and ut first are q soft,
cartilaginous substance, which pro-
cceds from the skin, not from the
bone. Horn is composed Of the same
elementary substances as skin and hair,
and under the microscope it appears
more like II mass of hair solidified than
any thing else.
Thus at its first growth u horn /.
simply part of the outer skin or
cpidcrmis, without sensation, and can
be removed from its attachments to the
dcrmls or sensitive and vascular skin
easily and with very little pain. When
the horn has grown about half an inch,
which is when the calf is six weeks old.
it can be removed with the least
trouble. 1t is then attached only ia
The skin, and if separated by u SHARP
pen-knlfe from the skin by u cut made
close around the horn through the skin
1t may be lifted clear out of its socket
and leave no attachment to make any
further growth. The inconsiderable
wound, not nearly so serious as the
docking OF a lambs tail, o o heals
under the protection of II little tar, and
the trouble is over.
This little operation may prevent the
fatal gorins of some person by the
animal OF the future. What is gained
besides! A great saving of food, saw.
ing in flesh, saving Of money, and
peace and quiet among the animals
and to the owner. Each animal in the
herd gets its share Of food, and the food
is not wasted in violent muscular ex.
erc'se and worry. What objections are

MISS VAN ZASDT's PIrTsBURG RELATIVES
Utterly DISCARD HER.

PIrrsBURG. Jan Ill spent nearly the
entire Sabbath on my knees IN PRAYER for

the aunt of Miss Nina Van Zandt, who is
affianced to August Spies, the Chicago Anar-
chist, .'and when | opened nv Commercial
Gazette this morning and saw that Mr..

refused the license so that she could not
marry. | thanked G ID for what seemed
direct answer to my prayer, ard then the
next thing did was to send telegram to
Mr.. Seeger thanking him for his manliness
aud courage in daring to refuse the license.
The first intimation the Pittsburg relatives
had of the approaching marriage was the
announcements made in the papers of Satur-
day morning last. The shock to Mrs. Arthur
and her distinguished father and mother can
readily be imagined, especially as Miss Van
L tndt's mother. who is the only sister OF
Mrs. Arthur had been visiting her parents
and sister just two weeks previous, and with
the exception of jokingly remarking that
Nina expected to marry some nice young man
in the Spring, had made nothing known, and
had not given the slightest hint in the true
direction. In reading the news, so great was
the prostration of Mrs. Arthur's father, MIR.
William B Clark, that Mrs. Arthur was
obliged to write to the Van Zandts the mes
sage she wished to send. The letter was
mailed by 10 O'Clock Saturday last, implor-
ing them to prevent the wedding This was
closely followed By another, and the Van
Zindt family were informed that henceforth
they were not to be considered in the light of
relations, every connection socially and
financially. was dissolved forever, aud Miss
Nina utterly disinherited.
''She will receive no more than our dog
lying there on the rug, every dollar will be
bequeathed to charitable purposes" said
Mrs. Arthur, as she wiped away the bitter
tears from her eyes. This morning a letter
was received from Mrs. Van Zandt from Chi
cago, written before the receipts of those
sent from Pittsburg, in which she informs her
relatives of Nina's approaching marriage to
Spies, the Anarchist, and invites them to be
present at the ceremony, which il to be per-
formed on Thursday in the Jail in Chicago.
adding. also, that she and Mr.. Van ZaDdt
could find no fault in the man, and had given
their full consent to the nuptals and that she
hoped the friends here would not worry
themselves.

Improvement Of the Kennebec

Congressman Milliken and Dingley
went to the department last week and e1-
amined the report of the engineer upon
the Kennebec river improvement. The
engineer reports that he made an exa"i-
nation of the river and recommends that
one thousand dollars be expended for a
survey preliminary to an appropriation for
its permanent improvement. As no sur
vey and consequently no estimate OF the
cost of the required Improvements has
been made, it is not possible to get an ap'
preparation for this in the river and haroor

Agree that catsrrh is no more nor less than
an inflammation of the lining membrane of

Nasal catarrh and all catarrhal affection of

No conscientious physician ever attempts to
do so.
